Sometimes I find words that I don't know, and so, head for the dictionary. after finding the word i wanted, i just keep looking. Sometimes I open up to ramdom pages just to see what I'll see. It's fun. To me, words are like lincoln logs; they're meant to be played with.<br />Second,I write very unconventional poetry and am just starting to put them in a blog. At aries1949,or aries49.

This is not good. <br /><br />While I actually enjoy some ambiguity (as in double entendre), mostly I'd rather be clear and must get better at it. Here is where I practice. <br /><br />Also, even though I borrow freely from my homeschooler's vocabulary words (see <a href="http://3-ring-binder.blogspot.com/2011/03/3-good-things-word-challenge-edition.html" rel="nofollow">here</a>), I can assure you that I did not have to look up even one of the words used here!<br /><br />Question: where does one find the definition for <i>sobaholic</i>?Lynnehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12178771612031280593noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-685065582281848343.post-10089501399388340932011-03-12T07:05:54.049-05:002011-03-12T07:05:54.049-05:00You know how to use words, use them and have fun w...You know how to use words, use them and have fun with them. Manys the time I've been told, by my peers (?), to speak English. They don't understand that I do and they don't. I suspect you of being a staunch advocate of random dictionary perusal. It's ok to admit it. I enjoy your writing.<br /> thanks, Mikearies1949https://www.blogger.com/profile/12965969393137198849noreply@blogger.com
